Govt Delights in Scaring the Hell out of You!

How many people die of the common flu every year? Probably hundreds, if not thousands. How many people die from tuberculosis every year? (this was all but wiped out, but many have speculated that illegal aliens have renewed the threat of this dread disease...we don't hear much about it because it's politically incorrect to suggest that illegal aliens pose any threat whatsoever to this country.) How many people die from rabid animal bites each year? Probably more than you might think.

Nonetheless, people die; from all manner of things. People die in car accidents. People die because of govt imposed airbags. Millions have died of malaria (mostly children) since DDT was determined to be toxic to birds and fish. (Which has quietly been found to be an errant report...thank you for your fear mongering, Rachel Carson and environmental whackos.)

Something is going to kill us one way or another. What Big Govt likes to do is create massive panic so the group thinkers of the world will utterly BEG Big Govt to do something, ANYthing to save us. Just go to DRUDGE for the latest panic reports or watch any Mainstream Media outlet.

Big Govt is all too eager to come "to our aid" in these matters. They not only want to come to our aid, they often demand that they come to our aid. They dare not let a crisis go to waste.

The federal stash of vaccinations are no doubt being distributed even as we panic. Forget the fact that every influenza strain has different characteristics and that any given flu shot probably has no effect on whatever new strain may be making the rounds. No matter...the fact that Big Govt is doing something always comforts the unthinking sheeple, and if the vaccinations fail to be effective we can always mobilize the counselors.

Wake up, people! Hardly anything is worthy of panic. Surely not a handful of flu cases.

You would think that if this was REALLY panic worthy, we would at least close the borders, right? No can do! Illegals have a right to free health care just like the rest of us. Let's see, now...the "right" to free health care is where in the constitution? O' that's right, we don't go by that anymore!

Want an illustration of how the fear mongers work? See why so many skulls full of mush live in fear because of the crap they're taught in Govt Indoctrination Centers. Those bastards! How dare they propagandize the weakest and most innocent with their left-wing tripe!

Under the regime of the leftists we will have many more scares in the near future, real or manufactured, and all will come at a high price. Each new scare will dictate more and more restrictions on what we are able to eat, what we are able to purchase, where we may travel, with whom we may do business and even where we are able to live and work.

Because we are on the cusp of allowing Big Govt to take over our health care, be on the watch for all manner of lifestyles and products that will be discouraged or forbidden if we are to be covered under the careful auspices of Big Govt. Watch out if you consume tobacco, alcohol, fast food or drive SUV's and/or Pick-Ups. They may still be available, but you're going to have to pay a premium to be able to use them. If you happen to be overweight (obese is the word the leftist elites like to toss around) you better shed that ugly poundage because the govt is not going to tolerate your indulgent behavior. Obesity is the fast track to heart disease, strokes, diabetes and all manner of costly medical treatments that Big Govt will not lightly put up with. Rationing will have to occur so the fatties will probably be among the first to be forbidden from govt health care. Deal with it.

Please note that in case the laws of nature don't create scary scenarios of and by themselves, Big Govt is posed and powerful enough to create scenarios of their own to make sure we comply in the panic they intend to orchestrate. Don't doubt this for a minute. Big Govt thrives when the masses panic.

Get a grip, people! Don't be afraid of catching a cold or getting the flu; fear Big Freaking Govt who can and is destroying this once great country via nationalization of private enterprise, confiscatory taxation, paralyzing regulations and the diminution of our precious inalienable rights guaranteed by the constitution! (Damn! I keep forgetting we don't use that anymore!)

It's a brave new world; an extremely sick new world!

Wake the hell up, America!
